dnn 4.8.0 - i was on the previous blog version until yesterday when i upgraded to 3.4.0.
upon scanning the blog entries table, i verified the incorrect dates and noticed that many entries were duplicated (all entries under child blogs). at one point, i was able to restore the db from a backup (into a separate db) and copy the blog entries table. this corrected the date problem. but, upon adding the blog module to one more page, the same thing happened and all the entries were dated with that exact date and time i added the module to the new page. now, throughout all of my backups and restoring, i've lost the good copy of the blog entries table.
also, when i search my site, blog entries show up with the correct dates. but, when i click to view the entry, the incorrect date is there. the correct dates seem to be there somewhere.
any help?
Personally, I'm confused as to why you are putting the blog module on multiple pages? I think, the way I see it, is that you put the set of modules on one page and then each user can create a blog so that it's viewable on the menu pannel.
Look at my blog settup(I'll add a second blog now to demonstrate), it's all on one page, many blogs, and it does as DNN intended, "dynamically" updating the page what your looking for.
I think the problem you are experiencing is a result of attempting to install multiple instances of blog into the same portal. By doing such( I don't know the code behind..i"m just a user), your probably rewrittig portions of the table, or inserting data from one instance into the data from what you think is another instance creating all kinds of unpredictable behavior.
So, one dynamic module one page I think is the solution.
OR create a portal for each user and let them manage thier blogs seperately(sounds kinda overkill though).
